Mermaid on wooden boat, folk deals art shabby boat of reclaimed wood, salvaged, old wood folk boat with Greek mermaid painted, Greek folk art
deals Mermaid on wooden boat is a gorgeous, folk art, shabby boat of reclaimed wood.This salvaged, old wood folk boat with its Greek mermaid painted on, is a Greek folk art piece, by folk artist, E.Kokori, who now rarely paints.
She collected so much old wood from discarded old furniture and made her lovely, evocative, art brute works a long time ago.The wood may have come from old drawers, cupboards, windows, anything!
Here we have a gorgeous mermaid, a Greek folk legend of great magnitude, painted on the vessel of a shabby, folk boat.
The boat has a trapezoid form and the two pieces of wood, forming its masts are different in size and shape.One is a rectangular stick and the other is a triangular piece of wood with a curve.
The mermaid is drawn in splendor, with a triple twist of her tail and a crown on her long, dark hair.She stays afloat in a calm sea, holding a spear on her right hand and a red fish from a hook on her left hand.
The boat has two horizontal lines, as a background, behind her.Above the sea it's a mustard band of colour and above that it is a turquoise blue, decorated with circles and an arrow.Some birds are painted on the mast sctructures of this rustic boat.
The artist has signed her work with her initials on the lower left corner of the boat.
This vintage, Greek folk art painting measures about 20cm in length x 16cm in height x 2cm in width (7.87'' x 6.29'' x 0.78'').It is a very light piece of wood.This folk, mermaid painitng is in very good condition. Whatever minor cracks and dents there might be, have always been there, as shabby style details.
